Just ordered a 2011

After poking around on here a little to verify what I thought would be a good color configuration, I ordered a 2011 "justacooper" yesterday with the following options:

6-spd manual
White silver
Black roof/mirrors
Black wheels
Black sport stripes

Sport package
Cold weather package
Xenon
White signals
Harmon Kardon
Bluetooth/iPod
Arm rest

Couldn't get the cloth seats with this color for some reason, but it wasn't a dealbreaker.

I'm a bit of a car and motorcycle enthusiast. I roadrace motorcycles at the club level, and my last 2 cars were a 2006 330i w/ZSP/6MT and an AP2 S2000. I wanted something that was fun to drive, I could drive in the winter, and was extremely efficient. As fun as the MCS would be, I just couldn't live with not having a spare tire and the potential for a HPFP issue 1,000 miles away from home.

-Alex

Congratulations. My boss has a 330i and enjoyed zipping around in my MCS 06 as well. Different street experience...

The White Silver and Black combo looks amazing. We have one here at the dealership.

Welcome to the forum, I don'[t think you will regret the "justa", it's what I have, no complaints.
